GI Joe continues to look like big, dumb, fun

Video: We're suckers for sexy, cat-suited gals with HK SMGs.

The more we see of the new GI Joe film, the dumber it looks. 

But that only makes us want to watch it more.

In this sequence we get to see agents of the evil Cobra Commander take out the Eiffel Tower - yeah, that'll show those Frenchies! We also get to see the totally inadequate response from the apparent good guys - two clean cut types in awesome powered suits that let them climb walls, crash tackle baddies through walls, and generally take a lot of punishment.

One of them is also thick as two short planks, as at one point in the scene he throws off his fancy helmet to better kick arse and take names. What are you doing? Your head is squishy! You can't fight global terrorism with a depressed skull fracture!

But we still can't wait to see it.

A see a new life rule forming: Rule #426 - When a dapper Asian man in a white suit walks into your bank, do not stand up to offer a clearer target. And speaking of life lessons, have a GI Joe PSA!

Saaaaaaacked.

"Yeah! I'm on it!"

Gawds this looks terrible.

I'll wait until someone compiles all the Baroness scenes into one youtube clip and just watch that I think.
